Abstract: A field experiment entitled, “Optimization of seed rate and spacing of soybean (Glycine max. L. Merrill) during kharif season” was conducted at PG Research Farm, Agronomy Section, RCSM College of Agriculture, Kolhapur during kharif 2018 to evaluate different treatments on nutrient status and soil properties. The treatments consisting of four plant spacings viz., 30 x 5 cm2 , 30 x 10 cm2, 45 x 5 cm2 and 45 x 10 cm2 and three seed rates viz.,D1 (One seed dibble-1), D2 (Two seeds dibble-1) and D3 (Three seeds dibble-1). Mean total uptake of N, P and K and available N, P and K was influenced significantly by different plant spacing as well as number of seeds dibble-1. The uptake of N, P and K in soybean was highest in plant spacing 30 x 5 cm2 followed by plant spacing 30 x 10 cm2. Numerically available NPK in soil was increased with increase in plant spacing. It was higher at plant spacing 45 x 10 cm2 than other plant spacings. Highest available N, P and K was recorded in plant spacing 45 x 10 cm2 followed by plant spacing 45 x 5 cm2. Among the number of seeds dibble-1 the uptake of N, P and K was highest in sowing of three seeds dibble-1 followed by sowing of two seeds dibble-1. The available N, P and K was higher at sowing of one seed dibble-1 followed by sowing of two seeds dibble-1.
The seed yield were higher at plant spacing 45 x 5 cm2 produced seed yield (26.46 q ha-1) and stover yield (39.20 q ha-1) it was followed by plant spacing 45 x 10 cm2 produced seed yield (24.83 q ha-1) and stover yield (38.79 q ha-1). Significantly Sowing of two seeds dibble-1 produced highest seed yield (26.90 q ha-1) and stover yield (40.46 q ha-1) and it was followed by one seed dibble-1 with produced seed yield (25.53 q ha-1) and stover yield (39.48 q ha-1).
